I am attempting to create a Debian VM.  I had success with Windows 10, but have been struggling here with Debian.

 

I have an iso image downloaded directly from debian.org. 

debian-8.40-amd64.iso

 

I used the basic VM template, but can't get past the part where it asks to locate an HDD Driver during the install process.

 

If I am to change the template to advanced, I'm not sure  what to select for disk type or disk bus.

 

Also not sure if there's anything specific I need to do for the unRaid share/mount tag.

 

Ummm what if you change the controller for the disk for something like legacy like IDE? Just an idea!

Try this:

 

1. Download this iso http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.4.0/amd64/iso-cd/debian-8.4.0-amd64-CD-1.iso

 

 

2. Check the MD5,SHA1,SHA256 or SHA512 hash (Please use a program like ShareX (Tools -> Hash) and not a web based app).

 

 

3. Create a new Debian VM.

 

 

4. Install Debian

 

I did the same thing on the 6.2.0-beta21 and it worked without installing any drivers.

Thanks for the tutorial!

 

I will give it a shot and report back.
